Had a fun time on Saturday night at a superhero themed birthday party. Had more pulling the ‘portable studio’ (read: my camera, a big-ass light, and a bedsheet as a backdrop) and setting up shop in the garage…

Check out some more superheros on my flickr here.

Yes I have a thing for Ninja Turtles

Happy Birthday Mom!

Mom

This is my Mom. For those who don’t know she’s a totally amazing potter (and artist in general), a person who several years ago I figured out that she’s way cooler than me. She also was unfortunate enough to be in town the day after I received my first studio light (Alienbee B800) and a 47 inch octagonal softbox (octobox). I had to take a picture of someone, and she happened to be sitting in my living room with a tiny laptop in her lap doing what all Moms seem to do these days (Facebook).

Happy Birthday Mom! It was good seeing you again and had fun seeing Avatar last night in 3D with you and Dad!

I realize I don’t post here much anymore, it’s Twitter’s fault for having a great outlet to say stupid stuff on the internet.

Instant Messenger Ramblings

Sometimes I just ramble on IM, while waiting for servers to reboot or whatever. It passes the time. This is a conversation with Justin D - notice that he never responded (he was marked away) and how it’s three different times I rambled.
